I hope it fixes the sms bugs where the whole darned thing freezes at times.. gah

Well there doesn't seem to be much of anything fixed on this update. I guess we'll have to wait for iOS 6.1 to see any serious fixes, especially to Maps.

My iPod Touch (4th Gen) seems much more snappier and my wifi connections are finally being remembered. I also haven't experienced the App Sore or iTunes apps crashing on me since installing the update.

How does it feel compared to 5.1.1? Any idea how RAM usage compares? I'm reluctant to update as everything is fine here, but just curious.

It's actually quite comparable to iOS 5.1.1. It's a ton better than the vanilla iOS 6. I haven't had anything crash on me or slow down, and I'm sure iOS 6.1.0 (not to be confused with the current 6.0.1) will have a lot more fixes and improvements. If I were you, I wouldn't do the over the air update. It's one of my pet peeves---I hate updates, as it leaves a lot of leftover garbage behind with the possibility of wonky bugs, glitches and slowdowns. Download the .ipsw from a website for your particular device and do a clean install.

Thanks for the tip. My 4G came with 5.0.1 installed and I updated it OTA each time. I might try doing a clean install of 5.1.1 and restore from backup just to see if there's any noticable difference. Then I'll be familiar with the process if I take the plunge and go to 6.

Well, that didn't work. I made sure to download the correct version of the iPod software (build number also matched what is currently installed) but iTunes refuses to restore it. I tried the troubleshooting guide on Apple but can't see anything there I could try.

here's a snippet from the updater log:


amai: tss_submit_job: error from server=94 (This device isn't eligible for the requested build.)
[/CODE]
